Hey guys, I could really use some help with this as it's brought my workflow to a crawl. Basically, while I'm working away in Mud, my perspective viewport camera does this: It's like an inverted fish-eye lens, everything at the edges of the camera appears huge. I've had this happen to me on different machines and I've yet…
Anybody seen this movie yet? I think that the trailer was posted here a while ago. I bought the dvd on eBay and watched it last night and though it was excellent. The story is very good and original and the design of everything in it is so nicely done and has a very old industrial dirtly look. Every shot is eye candy. The…

@Eric Chadwick thanks, I wish I could add a pic but its for work and Im not really allowed to. Its a small building though. I have just gone with a trim sheet approach (one clean, one dirty) to add in dirt with vertex painting the building mesh. Then using decals on top of that for other things like leaks and added grime.…
This is a really good looking fur! I was already familiar with the shell technique, but yours looks particularly good due the care in adjusting each shell maps and the height map usage. I gotta say I'm itching to recreate a few steps in your breakdown using Blender geonodes to automate them. 😂 Edit: I gave the node setup a…

Story: * reclusive stonemason in love with woman in town * encounters witch/fairy while gathering materials in forest, wishes for woman to fall in love with him * witch/fairy tells him that such a wish would be very selfish * wishes for it anyway * returns to…
Everyone needs to have their own definition of success. Working in AAA or being at certain studio isn't for everyone. I think that gets lost on people. Just cause one game is GOTY doesn't mean that working on that game is the best thing for any Artist in the industry. You might prefer working in mobile games or something…
Hi guys! I found Polycount a while back and never posted a lot, so I decided to start this Sketchbook. I will post stuff as it progresses in my free time. I'm a junior allrounder at a small studio and I like to concentrate on environment in my spare time, because I normally don't do this a lot at work, because other things…
Reference is the battle sprite: http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Magitek_Armor_(Enemy) For those of you who remember possibly the greatest RPG ever, no other machine quite brings back my childhood memories like the Magitek Armor from Final Fantasy 6. One interesting fact is that there are at least three different…
@jfeez @monkeymintaka Thank you for the tips and advise for any possible tutorials. Though at the moment, I'm looking for tutorials with regards to making the floor textures (though I also learned some textures could be made in ZBrush, which I am yet to acquire and install, for the learning process). Though to be nice, I…
